That's a really good troll. It works because it plays on all the pet peeves of people that answer questions on forums like this.
IM speak.
Posts in all caps.
Demands urgent help with email notification.
Hard to read code.
No error message or problem description.
Doesn't want to read user documentation.
Tells people not to waste his time.
Tells people to answer him respectfully.
Claims Access is better than Oracle on an Oracle forum.
When someone actually posts a solution, he tells them it isn’t formatted properly.
He demands an explanation of why it works.
Tells them an ORDER BY is not necessary if you have a GROUP BY.
Tells them he fixed it, no thanks to them.
Really outstanding work, 5 stars!!!

I have to agree -- that guy cannot be for real. He literally a comical parody ... I mean, you never know, I think we all are surprised by the people we encounter and the absolutely moronic posts/comments we read every day on the internet, but that was just too much.... you never know, though, I suppose ...

Just stumbled across this thread. Meeeeow... You're worse then a sewing circle.
As for this:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=499980&start=0&tstart=0
Of course he's having a laugh That's just hilarious. He's someone with the same twisted type of humour I have. Probably entertaining himself on an idle afternoon. I cannot believe so many people fell for that. That's 5 pages of people shouting back at him. They should go in the Twist List not him!
Is there a "shaking my head" smilie?
EDIT: No, that's 17 pages of people shouting back at him!

I'm thinking of joining forums.oracle.com just so I can post on that thread. I don't want to be the only guy on the internet who didn't.
Maybe we could invite user571114 to join SQL Team.
